Trending Designs & Styles for Dark Pink Nails

So what’s popular and trending in 2023? Below are some of the hottest trends we identified on social media for this pretty feminine manicure:

  • Gradient dark pink nails with 5 different nail polish shades – an easy manicure you can do at home
  • Dark pink French tips – look the best on longer nails, and it’s one of the easier manicures you can also achieve at home
  • Floral and Botanical art print – a pretty way to add some contrast to your nails
  • Stripe nails – adding silver or gold stripe to your pink manicure is a simple way to elevate it and transform your manicure to party-ready look
  • Gold or Silver foil nails – if you’re adding gold or silver, the main rule is not to overdo it and feature it only on a few nails, in a small amount
  • Glitter nails – for that extra sparkle, add one or two nails with glitter nail polish in the shade of dark pink
  • Geometric shapes – a very pretty style that’s easiest to achieve in a nail salon
  • Full coverage single color nails – if you found a shade of dark pink nail polish you adore, why not keep it simple and make it stand out by using just a single shade on all your nails
